Kratko su naveli kako se nesreća dogodila nakon tehničkog kvara te da nema naznaka zločina.
Podsjetimo, iranski predsjednik Ebrahim Raisi i njegov ministar vanjskih poslova poginuli su jučer u padu helikoptera. Iranska državna agencija prvotno je kao uzrok nesreće navodila loše vrijeme na tom području zbog čega se helikopter zabio u sam vrh planine. Nakon toga se zapalio, a od njega je ostao samo rep, prenio je N1.
